BRISKET BAHN MI BURGER

The Bahn Mi is one of my favorite sandwiches. Rich grilled meat topped with fresh vegetables, surrounded by a French loaf with mayo and hot sauce – beautiful. So why not take these same flavors and try them with a burger? I love the fattiness of brisket with the fresh, crisp flavors of raw carrot, cucumber, and cilantro. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

These are very flavorful burgers, so if you don’t plan on using the garnishes, I’d recommend using a little less of the seasonings for the meat.

For 10 burgers

1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

1 tablespoon white sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard powder

1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

2 1/2 pounds top or 2nd cut brisket, ground

TOPPINGS

6 burger buns

unsalted butter

1/2 cup mayo

sriracha, optional

1 cup shredded carrot

1 large cucumber, thinly sliced

2 jalapeños, thinly sliced

1 bunch cilantro

DIRECTIONS

Mix together the spice rub and mix with the ground brisket. Form into 3/4 inch thick patties, about 4 or 5 inches wide. Set aside on a piece of wax paper. Heat a grill up to medium high heat, and grill for about 7 to 8 minutes total, flipping once for a medium rare burger. If you want a more well-done burger, add 90 seconds total to cook it further (about 8 1/2 minutes for medium, 10 minutes for medium well, etc.). Remove from the grill.

Lightly toast the buns and spread with butter and a bit of mayo. Top with the burger, drizzle with sriracha, add carrot, cucumber, jalapeños, and cilantro.
